Tho Eight Hour QuestiOn-The Boycott on
tho New York Sun.
MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, Oct. 13.-At the
morning session of the General Assembly
Knights OF Labor the eight hour question
in the cigar trade was brought up. The
sentiment Of the convention was that as
eight hours is the rate of the Interna-
tional Cigsr Makers Union it would not
be right for the Knights of Labor EN-.
ployed in this trade to work longer hours
and give back set to the good work in
this direction already accomplished. 1t
was decided not to issue the label to
those who work longer hours.
Atthe afternoon session the press COM
mittee reported there was nothing to
divulge to the public. Delegates are
very quiet about the evening proceedings
and nothing authoritative has been
stated. It is said that the convention
Yesterday evening voted to continue the
boycott on the New York Sun.
The matter came up in the manner of a
resolution from District Assembly 81
of New York, the membership of which
is composed of printers and other
employees OF newspaper offices, asking
that the boycott instituted some time ago
5st conference Of thirteen or fourteen dis
trict assemblies against the Sun be de-
clared null and void. After lively de.
bate the resolution was tabled.
